so i kept reading and from el29 stock rogue recovery i would have to flash the el26 tar (kernel) through mobile odin or odin which will have cwm. This exact process? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNAH1TQaKdc

then just use the wipe all zip and install rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sniper:
If you're on EL29 rogue, you can just flash the EL26 CWM kernel in recovery with the zip version of it.

I keep getting the message

"Couldn't Install on USB Storage or SD Card"

when I try to install certain apps from the play store.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 5FOOTER:
U have to mobile odin stock kernel then install then mobile odin to Agat 2.0 then they should be there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Go to settings/storage, dismount external SD, install what you need, then remount the storage again.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
What Sniper said. You can flash the zip version of EL26 since you are still on gingerbread.

Edit: Saw the video. Yes mobile Odin is the easiest way to go, especially once you switch over to ICS.

Cool! I think you asked if they would work on another ROM. What did you end up installing those apps on?

TD: i originally flashed them on this rom.... worked great. i couldnt install apps from play store so i switched over to AOKP build 40 and those files also worked!

also works for Frankenstein's rom!

i will come back to this rom on next update lol flashaholic!

Um I've got a backup question... If I

use the above noted cwm will that allow me to establish a nandroid backup? Additionally could I restore a backup from this as well? (barring a hard brick, etc.)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Yes, you can backup and restore your current setup with the EL26 Stock CWM.

I don't want to confuse you but once you flash this rom, the Agat kernel that comes with it allows you to backup/restore this ROM only .

So as you make changes, the Agat kernel that comes with Blazer ICS is safe to use for backup and restore and flashing mods (I'm about to post another one).

However (and this is very important), if you choose to flash or restore to ANY other rom, ICS or GB, the general rule still applies:

Always odin back to the EL26 stock kernel first.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] j_shelton1988:
I thought agats kernels now allow you to flash without the risk of bricking? Correct me if I'm wrong.

CRT Animation Mod

I know Phantom plans on adding this soon but I thought I'd release the CRT animation mod for those of you that miss it. :)

(BTW Phantom, just to share. I see what you meant about having problems recompiling. I even had issues with the stock FF18 files. It took me a while to figure out the plurals errors in framework. It took me even longer to figure out that I had to edit 3 different plurals.xml files that needed line 79 fixed for it to recompile correctly. :victory:)

(this is ok to use with Blazer v0.1.3 or below only)

"Unfortunately, Samsung Keyboard has stopped"

Does this have anything to do with my settings? Thought I went through the thread, but I may have missed this...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I think you're correct but I've seen too many people reporting bricks because they 'forget' what rom/kernel they're using. It's really easy to get comfortable with flashing back and forth and a lot of people do it daily. I will always recommend the EL26 as a standard to prevent this from happening. There are a ton of Newbies around, just want to give them the best advice possible.

Edit: Don't want to take away from Agats' efforts. I love his work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] j_shelton1988:
True. Better safe then sorry.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Try going to Settings -> Applications -> All, samsung keypad, clear data & cache.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lagallinavecchia:
Thanks. Nothing was there to clear, so I disabled it. Seems to have done the trick! Thanks t.

OK... how about Automatic Brightness? I like it OFF and it keeps getting toggled back on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Nice. The brightness thing is some sort of bug. I use a brightness widget. Try downloading a brightness widget from the market and put it on your desktop to see if that will help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 5FOOTER:
It could be in the stock browser go to settings in it and check.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ointaylor:
TW Launcher vs. Stock

On 2 of the ICS leaks and now this ROM I have had the auto-brightness bug kick in. I will try the widget idea and see if that keeps it from coming back on.

***********************************************************

Is TWLauncher the only one included? I usually like the Stock launcher, but I see I am unable to clear defaults on it. Is it just me?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 5FOOTER:
Again check your browser if using the stock one and it does not include the ics launcher only TW. Give nova a try its a great launcher.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ointaylor:
I did not get what you meant by "check the browser" but sure enough, there's a brightness control on there too. I disabled it and hopefully that stops the switchback. Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 5FOOTER:
Yeah that should do it try chrome out too its pretty sweet and fast.

Anyone with feedback. The rom Is way too perfect. But this is a hard flaw to overlook. And ics is too buggy at the moment
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
Ok here's the deal, the kernel is half the battle. It also requires the ROM to use a GB updater script. Some devs are now packing their ROM with it and listing it in the features. Do not just assume a ROM has it even if it is new. Ask first if its not listed.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Ok, thanks guys, I just wanted a second opinion. It has to be XDA (maybe I'm flagged from uploading files LOL). I tried 2 different computers here and just now logged into a customer's server and same results. Guess I'll wait it out and try to correct those later. I just hate leaving dropbox links up cuz my dropbox is cluttered enough. ;)

Edit: Plus the XDA link has a counter. Speaking of which, I know at least 1 person downloaded it... and not a single thanks. And people wonder why some of the better contributors/developers have left? :p

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Iggys Pop:
I haven't noticed any issues with mms or SMS. I've only been running the ICS ROM for 24he's though... However I did notice something odd, I did a benchmark using antutu and only got something like 4800. I was on EL29 rooted stock before I flashed the newest ICS build, on GB I got a benchmark score in the 6000's... I'd anyone else seeing similar results, this normal? Also, IM somewhat interested in overclocking, can this be done with this kernel, if not which one is recommended and if so, what's the best method? Otherwise very smooth ROM not glitch or anything I've noticed yet, thanks for your great work yo!

Sorry my friend I will admit to downloading it and not thanking you but i did hit today since i did get it downloaded and flash works great so thank you
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
No problem. I do a lot of these mods based on requests that appear in the threads. Users don't realize how many hours go into researching a seemingly simple request. Even though it may be a simple change of one line of code, ICS has changed the programming so we're all starting over from scratch in a lot of areas. (Plus I'm coming in a little late in the game... tried to stick with GB as long as I could. :))

REALLY want to see an extended shutdown menu with Recovery & Download Modes added. Looking into it.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leond:
thank you, I actually did find it - I disabled % in Display settings and flashed Blazer.v0.1.3.Big.Battery.zip, I have no status bar at all now for some reason. then I think i made things worse, i went back to recovery and flashed "modified calkun's script -no data" i assumed that it will only format cache, but now phone won't boot and won't go to recovery (stack at boot script), I can still go in to download mode, so I assume I can still use odin, what should i do now to recover? can i use odin to flash blazer ics rom again?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
You should odin EL26 Stock CWM for recovery. Then use Calk's format all and reinstall the rom.

If you're not sure, use sfhubs one-click odins to go back to stock rooted.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leond:
thank you, do you think i have a chance with

SPH-D710.FF11_CL663858_ROOTED_NODATA-OneClick.exe

to preserve data? It should have custom recovery (CWM?) so I can flash it with odin, then boot in to recovery without even booting the rom and reflash blazer rom ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
It is not safe to use that recovery for flashing. You are on ICS still, you need to odin the EL26 stock CWM tar from here:

http://chris41g.devphone.org/index.php?dir=EpicTouch/Stock+Repack/EL26/

Why is preserving the data so important? It looks like that is what got you in trouble to begin with. You should always do a format all (without keeping data). And find other ways to restore your data in the future (Titanium Backup or MYBackup).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leond:
thank you, i've done that now, still no status bar if i flash the battery mod Blazer.v0.1.3.Big.Battery.zip from recovery, am I doing it wrong?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Ok, sorry I usually post a way to go back but XDA wasn't allowing me to upload files when I first posted it.

Go back to the post and redownload both files (I posted the stock file too):

LOL. Funny you should ask. Out of fairness, I went stock for a few days and I JUST flashed 3.5A this afternoon. It's running fine, maybe a tiny bit of lag but not very noticeable and it's the aggressive tweak anyway.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
Lol gotta love honesty! I'm gonna roll with the aggressive as well see what it does
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
They do....but its best to use the format all.zip in it. Just to be safe. If you are worried there is also an el29 kernel you can flash via mobile Odin....it is safe to flash and wipe manually in and also boots you straight into recovery after flash. It is found in the kernel repository site under cm9 I believe.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] j_shelton1988:

Im sorry, I hadnt realized that sharing a script and then helping anyone who was interersted in it getting it set up was considered "not supporting"... I fully intend to participate in the expansion of this script, but Im not sure what more instruction is necessary..."if you dont know what it is, it probably isnt for you"...

Along with the output log so you can see what is done....

Not to mention the people who have ignored the warning and messed with it anyway have all been personally assisted by me and I havent heard ang complaints...

Would you have me list all 18k of output in OP? No disrespect intended, but really....

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Not sure if it has something to do with this ROM (I am running 1.2).

On google navigation, the voice seems to get stuck on addresses every once in a while while the actual on-screen instructions are working fine.

For example, the voice will get stuck on "make a left on Blazer street then keep right at the fork" ... it repeat this on every new step of the navigation on a +1 hour trip while instruction on the screen where spot on.

I tried deleting the application data, fix permissions, reboot, clean cache, etc...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Dude, you dropped a single file here with a couple vague words and then left. If you go shopping, you don't buy a plain white box that says FOOD on it and expect someone to know how to cook it.

Please, I'm just asking you to tell us more about what the script does and how it is installed. It's not that big of a deal. It's what we've come to expect from all of the contributors and developers here.

If you're not sure how, I can make a flashable zip for it and also a removal script so anyone can install and try it out (It's always good to have a way out if something doesn't work, a way to return to stock ;))

Also if you want people to try it, you've got to make em want it, provide easy to follow instructions and a more detailed description about what it does. An easy delivery system is a must too. You really should want to offer this to everyone, not just the most advanced users here that know what scripts are, how to implement them and what to do if it conflicts with some existing code that is running along side of it. :cool:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
I woukd love if people would try it out. I dont know a better way to demonstrate what it does than to share the script's output though.. Basically, its just a plethora of settins in various formats... It sets things such as read_ahead_kb (in every loop and ram block, not just sdcard), tcp/ipv4 settings that hopefully optimize others' 3g as it has for me, lowmemorykiller parameters, adj groupings, min_free_kb.. a couple test settings of mine such as the increased fifo_batch (first-in_first-out) sizes and decreased the read/write remember times, decreases , there is more in there and much more that I am still adding.

The only thing I can say against the SugarPill variation is that battery life is lacking. If you know a "battery guy" Id be endebted to you for putting me in touch...

I hope that wasnt too long of a post... It is alk in the log and Im sorrg if I had done something wrong... I do respond to PMs and have worj, a woman, and a really time consuming script to keep working on.. I am sorry though...

Ps, Its not flashable because I felt that until its been proven stable on all pbones, I dont want people who wouldnt know the way out to get stuck.

I made a flashable copy for some...

I aure wouldnt mind knowing how to make a removal script though, if youre serious =)

Ive just been using Ultimate Flashing Tool with "make backup" set so its an easy enough fix, i guess.
